You probably need a consensus on how is name is actually pronounced.

I am NOT hearing it pronounced with a long i, like in pints.

I haven’t heard it with a short i sound that I can recall (although I haven’t watched the news today, so I don’t know how anyone currently might be screwing up his name). I’ve seen people making fun of his name by calling him “Rinse,” but that was a joke. The long i sound is the correct pronunciation as a nickname for his real name Reinhold, which is always pronounced with a long i sound.
